As mentioned in the previous lesson, Core values are the enduring ideals that illuminate who we aspire to be. They set the highest standards for our lives and guide our vision of what is good and right. On the Compass Card is a list of common Core Values. Feel free to add any values you’d like to this list.


Grab a sheet of paper or your journal and draw a line down the middle.
 


On the left side label it Present and list all the values you feel you currently identify with and use in your everyday interactions.
 


On the right side label it Growing Towards and list the values you aspire to see in yourself and hope to use more.


This activity promotes reflection and encourages you to identify the deeper structure of who you are, and how you wish to participate in the world.
